HEARING INTO PLAN FOR FLATS ON SITE AFTER DEVELOPER APPEALS

- ALEXANDER BROCK Local Democracy Reporter

A CRITICAL appeal hearing over plans to demolish Birmingham's historic Bull Ring Indoor Market building will be held in October.

The divisive proposals for the city centre site would see the building replaced by up to 745 apartments or up to 1,544 student bedrooms - or any combination of those uses.

If they end up being given the green light, the plans would also provide new public realm works, a private central courtyard and rooftop terraces as well as commercial space.

But anxiety over what could happen to the market traders was a recurring concern at three council planning meetings this year, despite plans to provide replacement markets.
